He Commits a. Sisa to Jail because be does not give Bond to P?jr Money which be does not Owe. THE NEWS, of Monday, Rave an acoount of a model negro magistrate who committed a man to jail because he did not take his hat off, and now has to record the doings of a white magis? trate who, combining both ignorance and "pure cussedness,'1 has done an act which shows him to be a fit associate of his brother magistrate. This man, who was a Confederate soldier and is now a member of the Radical party, on Tues? day last committed a citizen to the jail of this city because he would not gire bond to pay the sum of fifty dollars which he did not owe. CAUSE OT THE ABREST. In 1867 a man named Nelson planted some cotton on the plantation of Hr. D. Ferguson, and being unable to attend to it offered it to Mr. Pit aar if lie would cultivate it and give him one-third of the net proceeds from the ?aleof it. afr. Pitier and three others, includ? ing Samuel Richardson, colored, consented to take charge of the cotton. Subeequenly two or the men withdrew from the agreement, lea ring Ur. Fitzer and Richardson in charge of Cae cotton field.? These two agreed that they should cultivate,the cotton, sell it, give Nelson hisone-thir 1, and equally divido the balance left, after paying Hr. Fitser the monay ex? pended in the cultivation. The cotton," one bale, was sold iu^Charleston by Mesare. W. C. Ree ? Co. in 1868 for $109. The expenses for cultivation, bagging, dec., was $32. The one-third, $36 S3, was paid to Nel? son, which of coarse left nothing to be divided, but put Ur. Fi teer about $20 oat of pocket. At the time, Richardson, although the matter was tally explained .to bim, asserted that money was daejtim from the sale; and that bj would have it ont of Ur. Fitser. BEFORE THE MAGISTRATE. On the 7th of this month, about eighteen months after the cotton wis sold, Richardson had a warrant issued by Magistrate H. W. Ris tig, of St. John's Berkeley, living- about thirty milos from the city-, (??the arrea t of Mr. Fitzer apon tho charg? of^awindeL" Mr. Fitzer, with his witnesses, appeared before the magis? trate, who, alter a brief investigation, told Mr. Fitzer that tl he did not give bond to pay the som of fifty dollars to Richardson, he would bare to go to Jail. Fitzer refused to give the bond required, bat offered to give security to appear for trial before a higher court. The magistrate refused to allow him to do BO, say? ing that it would cost the 8tate too mach for the case to go to any other court. He then wrote a commitment, and the constables brought Mr. Fitzer to the jail here. OUT UPON A warr or HABEAS CORPUS. Mr. Fitzer secured the services of O. W. Dingle, Esq., who, on yesterday, had his client lrooght before Magistrates Rivera and Sohro ler, upon a writ of habeas corpus. One of the nag is tra too was in favor of releasing the pris? sier upon his own recognizance, but the other hasented, and it was at last decided that he ihould give one hundred dollars security to ap )3ar before the State Court for trial. He gare he security sod was discharged. IGNORANCE AKD "PUBS CUSSEDNESS. " Tho magistrate had no right whatever to ake cognizance of the matter, as the statute >f limitations provide that a man cannot be arraigned for an offence of the character sl? oged nix months after tho alleged offienoe was lommlited. As the fellow Richardson avoided til of the magistrates in the immediate vioini y, and went a long diitanoe to Ristig, it is, to >e presumed that he knew the oharacter of the nan, and felt convinced that he would aid bim n carrying ont his vile ends. SAVAKKAH AND DIRE rr TRADE.-The Saran- ; ah Advertiser says: "Messrs*- W. M.

The first steamer a expected to arrive about the middle of No rember." _ FOUGHT HIS CLOTHES Orr.-Yesterday, about me o'clock, Roundsman Sheridan ordered a [ranken soldier, who was very disorderly ia a ; iawdy house, to behave himself. The sol- \ lier struck the officer, and the women oom aenced to scratch bim. The offiocr. however, nested the soldier and started off with him o the Guardhouse, but found it necessary to , all assistance. The soldier was then taken up ty four men. He straggled so desperately ' hat, despite the (?ffOILS of the men to keep his , lothes on, he kicked them off, and was carried teaily naked ap Broau-street. Io his strug- j ;les, he gave Roundsman sheridan several licks in the face. The soldier vdll be before he Mayor this morning;.

The Mayor yesterday imposed a flue of ten lollara opon oar Postmaster for not mention ng his horse in bis tax return. It is reported that the indefinite postpone cent ofjtbe consideration of tba Police bill waa ocamoned by two or three of the white Alder nen telling the colored members that it waa a lodge to give the Mayor the power of adding oma more Dem?crata to the polios force.

TO THE ICDITOR OF THE NEWS'. I beg leave to notice briefly certain errors into which your correspondent "Jue ti tia" has fallen regarding the application of the State law to the recent city "ordinance to create the office of In s nee tor-General of Timber and Lum? ber," deo. Your corresponden' asks, "Can the City Council create each office ?" This quea tion he answers in the negative, relying upon the following clause in the act of December 20, 1853 (not 1654. aa stated by bim:) "The City Connell of Charleston shall elect annually one or moro inspectors and sarveyors of timber." Now, if th? inspector-general is a surveyor of timber, aa hts oath of office and the duties as? signed him by the ordinance show that he ia, thea the City Gounod has not exceeded its authority in eleotmg snob an officer, for the act says it -'shall elect one or more." The du? ties of tbe office, and Dot the title of the officer, must decide its legal character, ff, however, the inspector-general is not a "surveyor of timber," bat if his functions are purely m?ni? terial or clerical, then the aot ia qa -suou does not toaoh his office, for that aot Mates solely to "inspectors and sarveyors of timoor." Your correspondant farther alleges that the ordinance violates also the "act of 1856, redu? cing ?he feeaof the measurers to eight cents per thousand feet." In this ho ia again in er? ror, as WTftTeadrty bo BOBO by corflp&ring the following from the aot with the clause ia tho ordiiianosfixing the fee ta relation to timber. Tbe act says : Section 1, "Toe public mea? surers of ranging timber io tho City of Charles? ton shall be entitled to receive for measuring ranging timber eight drats per thousand for every thousand feet measured." The ordi? nance siys : Section 12, "The fees for the sur? vey and inspection of all timber shall bo thir? ty cents per thousand feet, twenty-two cents of that amount to be paid to the eorvevor, or acting surveyor, and the remaining eight cents to be paid to the inspector-general." It is olear that the act prescribes tho fee for mea? suring only, while the ordinance gives the fees for measuring and inspecting. To measure is simply to determine the number of feet, board measure; while to inspect, according to tbb ordinance, ia to determioe the quality of the timber, to classify and mark it, and to return to the owner a survey-bill setting forth each classification. I agree with your o or respond ont io tho op in ion that tho new ordiaanoe is, in some re? spects, unjust to the timber-eut tors; bat the grievances does not lie either tu the title of UM 'of?oo or inspector general," or in the feeeohurgod for inspection and measurement, bit m tbs mode of measurement sad in the olassincation. It is this : Section 3 provides that .'mill timber mast be measared at ouo third from the top," instead of ita being mea? sured m the middle as heretofore. In a stick of timber sixty (60) feet in length, twenty-four (24) inches at the batt, and twenty-one (21) luches at (be top, thoa allow.og only one (1) iooh taner to every twenty running feet, the timber-cotter ur seller will lose twenty-seven feet, board measure, by having the atioK measured at one-third from the top instead of at the mid Ile, while the buyer gains by tho excess of sise between the ooint of measurement and tho butt of the stick. Io other words, the bayer gaiaa by two-thirds of the length towards the batt, and loses nothing ia the remaining third towards the too, while the seller ioues in the entire loogth. again Section 4 provides that all timber harina- "ring, wind or heart shakes," shall be olassed as -'defec? tive timber, to be paid for at one-third the price' agreed upon between the boyer and salier for merchantable timber." Now these defects exist ia a greater or lees degree in all timber, and therefore should not determine the o aaaification. Again, Section 8 provides that all "shipping timber mast be Blear of wane," yet no ah i ppm sr la ever without "wane/ The measurer should bo authorized to allow for "wane." The clause above quoted, fixing the rate at which the borer shall pay the seller, is clearly improper, for the bayer and seller have an absolute and indefeasible right to agree up JU any price to snit them? selves. Wub the exception of thedefeota that I have cited, and which will, I am assured, be reme? diad Ly the City Couneil at an early day, the ordinuuoe gives general eat'sfactioo to the Umbji-outters, whilo tho lamber dealers gene? rally approve of it. Tho feea foi measuring, bo., timber and lumber, are, in tho aggregate, three c -n ta lower per thousand feet of timber and lumber tbau they have ever been. The Alderman who framed and proposed the ordinance in the former Counoil. stated, at tho time of its paeseare, that be had submitted it to tue approval of many large lumber dealers, and they ali approved il. This statement the tim ber-cutterb will not doubt for au instant, X. J MACKEY, Inspector-General Timber and Lumber. Charleston. Septembers. 1862. BUaiMBSH A O T IC K ti . SALB or Bub ESTATE.-Messrs.
